She was a feral cat living in the backyard of the Commerce City studio. There are a lot of strays around these parts. As the only long haired tortie, we always referred to her as Brindle Fluff (which later became Brenda). She had a litter of kittens in 2018, of which only two survived. One was a funny looking long haired orange tabby that we called Amish Beard and the other was a short haired gray tabby that we called Gray Guy. The three of them lived in the backyard for a winter, and we saw Brenda catch squirrels to feed the kittens. Eventually we caught all three of them with the help of The Feline Fix, a non-profit  spay and neuter alley cat organization in Commerce City. The vet spayed\/neutered all of them and treated them with basic vet needs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe kittens had a lot of health problems and their growth had been severely stunted from malnutrition so even though they were fully grown they still looked like kittens.

Over the next two years, Ravi continued to give her food and shelter in the winters and very slowly she started to trust him. Now they’re fast friends! Brenda loves to sleep on Ravi’s desk and on his lap while he’s on the computer or drawing.
